Well, if China uses legal licenses only, than with a retreat of Microsoft out of China, or the Chinese goverment forbidding China to use Microsoft software, the number of people using Linux could jump with 20 to 30 mln in a year time, and after several years, the remaining linux howtos will only be understandable when you are able to read Chinese.
And ofcourse, after they make it go through, sue everybody with a new version of windows in S Korea=Still income for Microsoft. Or complain to the US goverment that the US software industry is loosing ground in Asia, and that Linux is stronger than ever.
Ofcourse the exposure rate could be a lot lower. Enough research however shows the mentioned percentages, so to me it does not seem inflated. Trying to follow the path of lower exposure rate, is ostrich politics (head in the sand: If I can not see you, you can not see me).
With HIV it is unknown. People infected with HIV and who later develop aids, the mortality rate (without medicine) is 100%. Nobody cures of aids. Apparently people do cure of HIV, or live with it for prolonged periods. Those cases are usually never seen by a doctor, or only discovered by the mentioned research. To determine the resistance of the population to HIV, somebody should probably research a complete population which has a high of infection, like the group of prostitutes in Gambia, but then on a larger scale. I am afraid the rate will be pretty low.
Average rates of infection go up to 15% in some regions. Assuming that the infected have more risky sex, the chance for a prostitute to have an infected client is higher than the 15%. After 1 year the chance of not having aids is then down to just 5%. Ok, chances of winning powerball is lower. Still rather play powerball than russian roulette.
In some countries in Africa scientists also discovered that certain prostitutes did not have aids. Since the infection rate is extremely high, they interviewed does prostitutes and concluded that the only reason that they did not have aids was or extreme luck (win powerball lottery everytime), or immunity against the virus. They also thought they could use these women for their research. After the initial news I have not seen any other news about this anymore.
A browser based IDE for whatever language right now would be a great solution for workgroups. For myself it would mean that I could work on any computer with a browser, no need to set up anything to get started. So yes, it would not just be new, it will be revolutionary (if it has some speed). You will get enough community behind you once you got the proof of concept to make this rock like eclipse.
Your post just sounded to me as hard to believe, trying to trick the/. crowd. If you really get this going, even if it is just proof of concept, it is already very cool.
If continuing education for programmers was a priority, quality would be better.
This also requires more than the current courses which are pretty much level starter course. It is sad that after a few days being busy with a language before a course, you will already find mistakes/bugs or just better ways to do it than what is promoted in the course.
For example after a 3 day crash course (I missed day 1, else it would have been 4 days), I became a certified Stellent developer. So a "real" test at the end to determine if you are worth it or not.
Well, if it turns out to be a dupe, than it took forever for the fixes. For example wordpress 1.5.1 v2 is still vulnerable. 1.5.2 is now just around. Just as for some other software. I would than say that this was a seriously ignored problem.
McAfee sucks for real info, look at symantec or at my at summary. In short: Update your software on time. There are some small inconsistencies between what the worm attacks and what needs to be updated though.
Maybe I could adjust rotating doors in shops to this design. Than it can power the lights or something like that. With enough wind, people will get sweeped into the store by this system too.
That is because airospace engineers are the main designers of these kind of machines. They know propellers, have all the systems to calculate what is possible with it, and through old designs of windmills (from 1400AD or even earlier) the principles pretty much stayed the same.
Morfix is not OSS, this tool this doc is about is not OSS either. Anyway: According to Microsoft you could learn more about Open Source by reading a word document, yes (-:. It was just the first usefull link for this post, did not want to analyze all 234.000 to see which one fits best, and which is in an "open" format. If I post a link to an OpenOffice document, even more people will complain.
Hey, maybe you should discuss this with Steve Jobs. He is locking Mac OS X on intel with a special chip. It should be possible to use a same kind of chip to lock out certain OS too. That way you won't have the risk of IDEs frying you or your CPU.
Morfik claims to be the next generation IDE. Totally for the webbrowser. So what do they build it with: Delphi. That is not being true to yourself. Build an AJAX version than to show the power of what you believe in. An AJAX version would also make the more and more preferred development environments accessible to them: Mac OS X and Linux (Around me I hear more and more developers choosing for Linux as their main platform, and if Apple would release OS X for the cheap intel hardware, that they will try that too, at least just to see).
Actually it is: You sue Ford after you have blown up your car (burned to a crisp) after modyfying some parts, and get a settlement. So in that case Ford is pretty much f**ked.
It is pretty common though that people want support on code that they altered themselves, and than claim that you put a bug in it beforehand and have to fix it. Happens all the time, and everytime it is a fight to get paid for your time again when it is not your fault. Standard action: Run it through CVS to see the changes, after that send the original code without the extentions the customer made, and than just hope that they will see your point: It is not my bug, but yours. Ofcourse it also happens that the customer is correct, but that is like 1 in a million (LOL).

You have a link to some info on the net on this subject?
Uh, spending the research budget with these women in small quantities at the time?

Yes, not interesting, non-informative. The post should be marked redundant.

The second prize is an all day massage to get the RSI down a bit.
Just to get the security really good, they will run the Sandstorm apps in a sandbox environment. You need to get the sand from somewhere anyway.

Sorry to be crude here, but show me a sample and I believe you.

They could have saved themselves several years of development by using opensource. A tool similar to morfik (MVC model, ajax development, some datamodelling) is for example this one: http://swerl.tudelft.nl/twiki/pub/Main/AvailableOp enProjects/backbase-eclipse.doc
There are probably a lot more (google on +eclipse +plugin +ajax gives 234.000 hits)
